(Chicago, IL, January 20th)

Internationally-recognized graffiti artist, Shepard Fairey, designed bags, stickers, and posters for Obama's Inauguration party on Jan 20th, and the full collection, including signed works, are available on Obama's newly launched Inauguration website. http://pic2009.inauguralcollectibles.com/category/SHEP.html

Shepard Fairey was interviewed about the collection last week on Comedy Central's The Cobert Report.
